Official Title:	Study of PPAR Gamma Agonist-Rosiglitazone in Normotensive Type 2 Diabetics With Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring

Further study details as provided by Baskent University:

Primary Outcome Measures:

Ambulatory blood pressure monitors used to determine the subjects blood pressure before and after the treatment. At the end of three months period wit rosiglitazone treatment diastolic blood pressure decreased.

Estimated Enrollment:	25
Study Start Date:	March 2004
Estimated Study Completion Date:	August 2004

Detailed Description:

The first study to evaluate the effects of troglitazone on blood pressure in humans was published recently, which demonstrated a 5/4 mm Hg reduction in ambulatory blood pressure in 18 nondiabetic obese subjects after 12 weeks’ treatment. Another study in 18 hypertensive subjects with diabetes mellitus showed an 18/12 mm Hg decline in office blood pressure after 8 weeks of treatment.
